my Ti400 fan is ALWAYS on — #21
Correct me if I'm wrong, but at least on my Psimo, doesn't the fan blow out, not suck in? It hasn't come on in over a year, so I can't quite remember.

(desk)retiring my Pismo, ideas? — #1
I have a Pismo 400/640MB/30GB but I also have an iBook 500/256/10 combo drive. I find myself bringing the iBook EVERYWHERE and leaving the Pismo on my desk. Since my Pismo is eff…

I'd really recommend getting a desktop. It's faster, has the ability to do just a tad bit more than a regular laptop would. I have a pismo and Ti... wish I would've gotten a desk…

I would agree with kndonlee that a desktop is faster, but if you are on a limited budget (unlike some people on these boards) that is not always an option, expecially with Apples p…

Why the heck did you buy the iBook? Especially the 500? Granted it's smaller, but it's virtually the same computer sans a few pounds and monitor spanning. You shoulda just waite…

I actually didn't buy the iBook. It's my work machine. It's basically my machine but I don't own it. In about a year from now I will be allowed to buy the computer at "market va…

Also I recall that keyboard in Costco being black, even though all the pictures of it that I see online (I think it's the Microsoft Internet Keyboard Pro) show it in white. I thin…

(I should probably add this as an edit instead all these new posts, but i have tons to say.)
Also I do have a FW hard drive. In the fall of 2000 i bought the Pyro enclosure and a…

Waffffffle, yee be a luckier man than I! Can't argue with the prices your getting on a steady stream of Mac laptops.
You didn't give the whole story. If you're certain that y…

Yes I do agree that work treats me very well. They give me computers every 2 years, which is great. If only my salary was better...
I bought the PowerBook in the sumer of 2000, b…

I think we'll finally see a selection of G4 upgrades for the Pismo over the course of 2002 (if you really want to spend some of your own cash.)
When's your next work computer due?
(desk)retiring my Pismo, ideas? — #11
They don't tell us ahead of time when the new computers are coming. I think with the last iBook it was supposed to last 18 months but ended up going for over 2 years. This iBook …

I think this is a Peripherals topic.
I wouldn't recommend those Microsoft keyboards with buttons. The buttons don't work with the Mac, and the touch isn't excellent, either.
Th…

Those buttons really don't work with a Mac? You sure? Isn't the driver based on USB overdrive? Shouldn't that make all of the buttons capable of doing something?
Bizarre Problem — #1
In recent months, my good old Firewire PowerBook G3 seems to have taken on a mind of its own. Often, when I put it to sleep, it will immediately wake up. Sometimes it then goes b…

No Road Warrior--New Ti is a Road Wimp — #1
I had a G3 firewire PowerBook for 2 years and took it around the world. After 2 years it still looked and functioned just as it did the day I got it.
Now I have a one month-old Ti…
No Road Warrior--New Ti is a Road Wimp — #2
I have a TiBook 400 that I bought used in December, I can't speak for the keeper before me, but I treat it pretty rough. In and out of my tool bag, traveling with it to and from w…
No Road Warrior--New Ti is a Road Wimp — #3
Unless you're treating it like a G3 PowerBook, the G4 PowerBook will hold up to normal wear and tear.
I don't think it's typical to have a hinge break after a month. How often are…
No Road Warrior--New Ti is a Road Wimp — #4
I'm treating my TiBook (667) with the utmost of care, and the paint is still chipping off in places. I always remove my watch, so that's not the problem. BTW, the TiPaint is a ripo…
